England's No. 2 coach Dilley in hospital
England's assistant coach Graham Dilley is in hospital in Bombay after being taken ill on the tour of India, British newspapers reported on Tuesday.
"We are hoping it is just a case of dehydration and a reaction to the high temperatures. Graham has suffered from this before," tour spokesman David Clarke was quoted as saying in the Daily Mail newspaper.
"His blood pressure was a little low and it was decided to take him in. It is largely a precautionary measure."
Former test fast bowler Dilley, 42, was working with the players not involved in the opening tour match against a Bombay President's XI -- which was drawn -- when he was taken ill.
